Vacuum Planer Sled for Thin Stock // Does it WORK?? // Woodworking Experiment …In this video, I put on my lab coat (I don’t wear aprons) and try to eliminate planer chatter and tearout when I run thin stock through my planer. My machine only lets me get down to 3/16” without using an auxiliary sled, but even that produces inconsistent results unless you secure the material down to the sled. That works great for a couple pieces, but I wanted to come up with a way to plane down large quantities of thin stock for bent lamination work without having to secure every single piece before it gets surfaced. There were some hits and plenty of misses in this experiment, but was it a success?!?! You’ll have to tune in to find out! Stay tuned for more woodworking tips and shop jig videos!! #kjsawdust #woodworkingtips #keithjohnsonwoodworking
